Tolle Lege: Fathers, have you had "the talk" with your sons?

January 27, 2012 by Dr. Jeff Robinson


Steve Zollos's new book, Time for the Talk: Leading Your Son into True Manhood (Shepherd's Press), is a very helpful and unique resource for those of us who are raising sons. There are many whom this describes among our congregation at PBC.

From the preface to dads of young boys:

An excellent new theological mag online

January 19, 2012 by Dr. Jeff Robinson

An excellent new theological magazine, Credo, made its debut in December, edited by my dear friends at Southern Seminary. I will be contributing historical and theological articles every other month and my article on John Calvin and evangelism (really, it's just a preview of my forthcoming book with Michael Haykin).

A father's solemn duty: Family worship

January 18, 2012 by Dr. Jeff Robinson

Does God Care if Tim Tebow Wins?

January 13, 2012 by Dr. Jeff Robinson

[Editor's note: Does God care if Tim Tebow wins? Those of us who prize God's sovereignty should have a very different answer to that question than the secular media. My friend and former SBTS colleague Owen Strachan gives an excellent answer to that question below. Follow the link to read the entire artice.

Resolution for a new year: Sell all and buy Christ, Part II

January 04, 2012 by Dr. Jeff Robinson

[NOTE: As promised, below is the application section from my sermon on resolutions Sunday night. Much of it is borrowed from an extremely challenging and convicting sermon by David Platt and John Piper's excellent book Don't Waste Your Life.--CJR]

 

Resolution for a new year: Sell all and buy Christ

January 03, 2012 by Dr. Jeff Robinson

NOTEBelow is the first part of the sermon I preached on Sunday night in which I set forth my resolution for myself and the body at PBC for 2012. I encourage every member to access the audio and listen to this vital message. As I told the body, this resolution has been mine each year for the past 12 years or so. Tomorrow, I will post the application section which, as I made clear to those in attendance, was borrowed largely from John Piper's monumental book Don't Waste Your Life.--CJR  

One father's guide to watching bowl games

January 02, 2012 by Dr. Jeff Robinson
[NOTE: Following is my annual post on CBMW's Gender Blog on a father's duties to guard his family's hearts during the college football bowl season.]
